lstat
=====
:title: Shellcode Compiler Runtime
---------------------------------------------
int lstat(const char* path, struct stat* buf);
---------------------------------------------
Gets information about the file at path `path` and places it into `buf`. If the file referenced is a
symbolic link, this function will obtain the information about the link itself. The contents of the `struct stat`
structure vary by platform, but share many common fields:
* `st_uid`: User that owns the file
* `st_gid`: Group that owns the file
* `st_mode`: File access rights
* `st_size`: Size of file in bytes
The standard C runtime macros for checking `st_mode`, such as `S_ISDIR`, exist for all supported POSIX platforms.
Returns zero on success, or the negation of the error code on error.
